About Me

Photography is my absolute passion & I am very strong minded when it comes to producing pictures that capture not only my model but their essence as well! The model is only one part of the picture...it should be beautiful in its entirety. I may be new to the area but I'm not new to the camera! I have spent time on both sides but my passion lies behind on the creative side.

If you can dream it...I can shoot it! That is my slogan & I think that says it all! I ♥ working with models especially the newbies that don't realize their potential! To bring them a photo that they could never have seen themselves in but can recognize their selves in means I have worked to my potential!

Some of my favorite slogans that I can relate to...that may give you an idea of who I am:)

A woman's body makes her sexy, her face makes her pretty, her mind makes her beautiful. And, it takes a great photographer to capture it all♥ ~Anonymous

Ansel Adams was once quoted as saying "You don't take a photograph, you make it" I couldn't agree more! :) He was also quoted as saying "There are no rules for good photography, there are only good photographs" smart... man! :)

"The goal is not to change your subjects but, for the subject to change the photographer" ~Anonymous

"Seeing is not enough, you have to feel what you photograph" ~Andre Kertesz

"I always thought good photographs were like good jokes, if you have to explain it, it just isn't that good" spoken by a bright anonymous mind!

"Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything" ~Aaron Siskind

"I never question what to do, it tells me what to do. The photographs make themselves with my help" ~Ruth Bernhard

“It’s one thing to make a picture of what a person looks like, it’s another thing to make a portrait of who they are" ~Paul Caponigro

My preference...outdoors to studio...natural light to produced light...scenic...fresh beauty:) But I won't shy away from shooting anything outside the box...have an idea...bring it to me...let's make it great together~!

Thanks for taking the time to check out my port & have a great day! :)
